- It takes a little bit of time to "grasp" it (literally), but when you "harness" the controls it gets really good, nice art direction, smooth controls, nice visual feedback, well made!

This reminds me of the the original versions of bionic commando and I apprecieate giving your whip a skill curve. I think it helps your game stand out. Very solid art direction and use of colours.

smooth controls, very nice physics, I felt like spiderman
Can't have a game jam without a grappling hook game, controls are smooth but can be frustrating.
Love the roll and the fall animations! Quite challenging too! I enjoyed it!
Great work, a simple but challenging game. Loved the mobile support too :)
Nice game, quite addictive once you get the hang of it (although can be frustrating if you fall down a lot after climbing high, but I guess that was the intent :) )
Great game — very challenging at first, but really addictive!
Very easy to pick up if you've played any other games. It's only missing the glitch in corners for max speed like in worms
Add multiple levels, a global leaderboard, and wrap it up! gold master ready to compete!
Pretty cool game! Easy to play and fun
Cool game!
A simple yet addictive mobile game where every climb challenges you to reach even higher!
Really addicting, could eventually become the next jump king!
Simple but very fun! Well done !
